CHAPTER TWO: I'm Sorry what?
"Emily? Hello? eeemmiilllyyy?"
'Oh my goodness! This isn't real is it? I must have fallen asleep at my desk! No probably not. This is to life like for a dream.'
I kept standing there saying nothing just staring at him with slightly parted lips and widened eyes full of shock.
'Okay, I have to say something? Or at least blink or BREATH!' I let out a quiet breath that I wasn't aware I was holding.
'Okay good, now...SAY SOMETHING!' Taking another deep breath I exhale a breathful laugh.
"I'm sorry..what?" I finally break my silence, sounding a bit shocked.
I could feel the nervousness take over his body. I blinked twice, then he asked the question again, or should I say stuttured.
"I-I uhh...I a-asked If y-you wa-anted..." He took a deep breath than continued with his question. "To uhm go-g-go t-to dinner w-with me-e after work."
'Oh wow! He did actually ask me out! But it can't be in a romantic way right? I mean I really don't think Spencer Reid would actually ask me Emily Prentiss out to dinner? Unless It would be simply 'as friends.' Platonic even!'
I see him looking anywhere but at me. He is suddenly all fidgety, and can't seem to stand still.
'Or maybe he does like me like I like him. I never really thought or brought attention to the short glances I see him give me or the small smiles and twinkling eyes he sends. He always does hold the door for me, and waits till I'm off the jet before he leaves and let's me board first before him. Unless it's nothing and just nice gentlemanly gestures. NO! I won't Belive it.'
Still standing here staring at him, still not answering the qustion. I could see the worry and embaressment cover his face, and fill his eyes. I also see that he took a step back.
He ran a hand through his short hair while letting out a deep breath I presume he has been holding, then he closed his eyes.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have...I just thought that...I gotta go." Spencer backed away to turn to the door. He was just about out the door frame when I speak.
"Spencer wait!" I turn around to see he stopped. I take a few steps forward while he turns around.
"I never said no."
"You never said yes?"
"I didn't say anything!"
"Touché."
We both laugh. Then there was a short silence, which felt way longer than it was.
I looked down and began to fiddle with my hands, He stuffed his in his pockets and started to slowely rock back and forth on his heels.
"You just...You just got me by suprise that's all."I said breaking the silence.
Looking up I see him looking at his shoes. He glanced up under his short bangs, His cheeks were lightly pink and his eyes were a tad more hopeful.
"So what are you saying?" he asked while taking his hands from his pockets and fully looking at me.
"What I'm saying is," I took a few steps towards him and put my hand on his cheek. He quickly inhaled at the contact. "Pick me up at eight." And with that I patted his cheek with my left hand and ran towards my desk to grab my things and leave.

By the time I got to my car it was 7:10pm
'Perfect! I think I'll have just enough time to shower, change, get ready and wake up from this fantasy dream!'
